Flipside

In the dim corners cast by Moons light,
在月光照耀下的灰暗角落
you see a gathering of patrons stand in a huddle
你看見一群老主顧擠成一團
Their desires are set on the wares of a lone pony amongst them,
他們的慾望集中在一隻孤單小馬的貨物身上
holding an auction for the rarest of magical artefacts
為了那最稀有的魔法製品爭相叫價
—no questions asked
沒有人提問
You watch through a façade of indifference:
你旁觀這表面上的冷漠
to you, this is life under Lunas silvery watch
對你來說，這就是露娜銀光下的生活
-
Dangerous, it may seem,
看起來，可能有點危險
but danger is all youve known
但這危險你足夠了解
And familiar faces fill your vision
你的視線裡都是熟悉的臉
as you step up to claim what is rightfully yours
當你站出來宣布自己的正當利益
A wordless nod, and all are silent
只有默許，沒有人反駁
For they know that what you want you get
他們知道你想要什麼
And as the gavel falls
當木槌敲下
You retreat
你撤退了
Perhaps this will be all you need;
也許這就是你需要的
you can flip this, certainly,
當然，你可以拿走
but... for how much?
可…要多少錢？
Enough to see your foals smile tomorrow?
足夠讓你明天繼續看到小駒們的笑臉嗎？
Enough for them to eat?
夠讓它們吃嗎？
You dont have much time to revel in your victory as suddenly, one by one,
你可沒有時間來慶祝勝利了，一個接一個
masked ponies reveal themselves from the impenetrable shadows of the crammed alleyway
戴面罩的小馬從陰暗漆黑的小巷裡現身
You are surrounded
你被包圍了
—but Celestia be damned if theyre stopping you this night,
但他們今晚要是敢攔你，塞拉斯蒂亞會震怒
or any night after
還包括此後任何一個晚上
